Background: Benign tumors of the esophagus are rare. They include leiomyomas, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, neurofibromas and lipomas. In this study we present our experience with enucleation of these 13 tumors for 10 years. Material and Method: A retrospective review of patients who underwent enucleation of benign esophageal tumors between 1995 and 2005 was conducted. Symptom, tumor location and size, operative approach and outcomes after surgery were recorded. Result Thirteen patients were identified(leiomyoma: n=12; GIST n=l). Eight patients were men, five patients were women. Most of them were 4rd and 5th decade. The tumors arose in the lower(7 patients) and middle(6 patients) thirds of the esophagus. Eleven patients underwent a thoracotomy; the remainder were resected using VATS. All of patients underwent simple enucleation. There were no complications and recurrences after surgery. Conclusion: We present our experience with enucleation of these 12 leiomyomas and one GIST for 10 years.
